About Level Shifts
The TTL output of the LT1016 will interface with many
circuits directly. Many applications, however, require some
form of level shifting of the output swing. With LT1016
based circuits this is not trivial because it is desirable to
maintain very low delay in the level shifting stage. When
designing level shifters, keep in mind that the TTL output
of the LT1016 is a sink-source pair (Figure A1) with good
ability to drive capacitance (such as feedforward capaci-
tors).
Figure A2 shows a noninverting voltage gain stage with a
15V output. When the LT1016 switches, the base-emitter
voltages at the 2N2369 reverse, causing it to switch very
quickly. The 2N3866 emitter-follower gives a low imped-
ance output and the Schottky diode aids current sink
capability.
Figure A3 is a very versatile stage. It features a bipolar
swing that may be programmed by varying the output

transistor’s supplies. This 3ns delay stage is ideal for
driving FET switch gates. Q1, a gated current source,
switches the Baker-clamped output transistor, Q2. The
heavy feedforward capacitor from the LT1016 is the key to
low delay, providing Q2’s base with nearly ideal drive. This
capacitor loads the LT1016’s output transition (Trace A,
Figure A4), but Q2’s switching is clean (Trace B, Figure A4)
with 3ns delay on the rise and fall of the pulse.
Figure A5 is similar to Figure A2 except that a sink
transistor has replaced the Schottky diode. The two emit-
ter-followers drive a power MOSFET which switches 1A at
15V. Most of the 7ns to 9ns delay in this stage occurs in
the MOSFET and the 2N2369.
When designing level shifters, remember to use transis-
tors with fast switching times and high f
of results shown, switching times in the ns range and f
approaching 1GHz are required.
